The World’s Longest Bar

3 men walk into a Put-in-Bay bar. The bartender looks at the men and tells them they can have a seat at one of the 160 bar stools. The men laugh. But, it’s not joke that the Beer Barrel Saloon on Put-in-Bay is home to the world’s longest bar. The South Bass Island bar boasts a 405 foot 10 inch bar which can seat approximately 160 bar stools. On any given night, there can be up to 56 beers on tap and 20 bartenders at one time.

Put-in-Bay residents and tourists seem to have a passion for long bars. Another bar on the island, Splash, is known for being the world’s longest “swim-up pool bar”. If it’s too hot, you don’t need to get out of the water to get a drink. The swim-up bar has 97 “pool stools” which wrap around the length of the pool bar.
